Weapon Proficiencies: A daelkyr bloodlord does not gain any new proficiencies for taking levels in this prestige class.
Spellcasting: At 1st level, a daelkyr bloodlord gains the ability to cast a small number of arcane spells drawn from the daelkyr bloodlord spell list. He can cast any spell he knows without preparing it ahead of time.
To learn or cast a spell, the daelkyr bloodlord must have a Cha score of 10 + the spell’s level. The DC for a saving throw against a daelkyr bloodlord’s spell is 10 + the spell’s level + his Cha mod.
A daelkyr bloodlord can only cast a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. The base daily allotment of spells per day is given on the table above. In addition, he receives bonus spells for a high Cha score.
Spells Known: At 1st level, a daelkyr bloodlord gains the knowledge of two 1st-level spells, chosen from the daelkyr bloodlord spell list.
At each new level, the daelkyr bloodlord gains the knowledge of two additional spells of any level he can cast, chosen from the daelkyr bloodlord spell list.
He need not prepare spells in advance. He can cast any spell he knows at any time assuming he has not yet used up his spell per day for that spell level.
Generate Symbiont (Ex): At 1st level, a daelkyr bloodlord can generate a symbiont from his own flesh. This process takes a 24-hour ritual and 100gp worth of magical and alchemical materials. He can generate any symbiont as shown on the table below. As he advances in level, he can generate different kinds of symbionts. Should his symbionts be killed, he can generate another one in a ritual identical to the first. Every three levels thereafter, a daelkyr bloodlord can generate another symbiont.
Symbiont Familiar (Ex): At 2nd level, a daelkyr bloodlord forms a special bond with a single symbiont that he hosts. This symbiont has a number of hit die equal to the daelkyr bloodlord’s class level plus any bonus hit die indicated on the table below. Both the symbiont and the daelkyr bloodlord gain a number of benefits from this bond as described below. A symbiont familiar never has a personality conflict with the daelkyr bloodlord unless he acts radically different from the norm (Ex. If influenced by an enchantment or similar effect).
Improved Symbiont Mastery (Ex): Beginning at 3rd level, a daelkyr bloodlord gains double the normal benefit from the Symbiont Mastery feat. In addition, he no longer takes ability damage from removing his symbionts.
Symbiont Collective (Ex): At 5th level, a daelkyr bloodlord’s symbionts become a single collective creature, with his symbiont familiar assimilating the personalities and abilities of the other symbionts in the collective. The collective uses the highest ability scores of the component symbionts and has all of the special qualities and special attacks of all the symbionts included in the collective. Once a symbiont is integrated into the collective it cannot be removed. Use the highest hit die of the component symbiont (typically your symbiont familiar) for the hit die of the collective. A collective can only have a certain number of symbionts integrated into it equal to the daelkyr bloodlord’s class level. Recalculate the Ego score of the collective for its new special qualities, special attacks, and ability scores.
Symbiont Adaptation (Ex): At 6th level, a daelkyr bloodlord adapts to the symbionts attached to him. He gains a +1 circumstance bonus on his Fort saves for every symbiont attached. The daelkyr bloodlord also gains damage reduction, overcome by byeshk, equal to twice the number of symbionts attached to him.
Evolved Collective (Ex): At 8th level, the daelkyr bloodlord’s collective has reached a new level of power. The collective becomes more connected to its host’s life force, granting him a +3 armor bonus, this is in addition to any bonus granted from the collective. The collective also gains magical armor and/or weapon enhancements equaling up to 10,000gp worth of enhancements. Additionally, the collective can act independently from the host when not attached to the daelkyr bloodlord, and can maintain telepathic communication with him even while not attached, so long as they are within one mile of each other. Lastly the collective’s Str score permanently increases by eight.
Daelkyr Ascendance (Ex): At 9th level, the daelkyr blood lord reaches his pinnacle, his type changes to outsider with the native subtype. He gains light fortification, damage reduction 10/byeshk, and fire and cold resistance 5. He is still treated as her previous creature type for her own spells and can still be brought back from the dead as if he were a member of her previous creature type.
